## Resource

Alan Saunders and Zachary Smith discuss all things Pittsburgh Steelers. On today's episode, we talk the recent ESPN layoffs and what it means for the sports media landscape and how it relates to the journalism world. We also discuss Aaron Rodgers reuniting with his family, the Le'Veon Bell situation, how we think the offensive line alignment will play out and if Daylen Everette can factor into the FS void. Let's go for another Steelers Afternoon Drive and discuss all this and much more!
